dc happy thanks for sharing your trading methodology using renkos.

Could you explain how you plot the 1 - 2 - 3 on your charts?

I might be wrong but are you looking to trade from the #2 pullback?

Yes Sir :

I try to enter at the break of the #2 ,

Then re-enter at any hooks ( pullbacks ) which follow .......

Hi DC, I have family matters on board so in truth I haven't been trading that much this week.

... but I'm still having fun taking 10 - 30 pippers here, there and everywhere ;)

I post some charts later if I get some time.

HOW'S UR TRADING WEEK? ... I bet it's MASSIVE! :)

DC,

The chart you posted in the previous post. Are these a modified Renko Bars?

How many indicators do you use on your chart?

Could you explain which ones?

I read all your posts from the very beginning.

They are standard renko ,

I have tried several indy's to help confirm , but they are not necessary ..in

fact they are sometimes harmful , because it takes your eye off the 1-2-3's and hooks .

A simple MA or 2 is really all you need , just to help with direction .

If you can master the 123 & hook you will have all the pips you need .

Look at pp2's charts ..simple yet powerful ..he get's it !!

Look at my trades yesterday ..

Took a small 123 short ,. Then when point # 1 was broken , we knew there must be a direction change ..

Waited for # 2 (blue ) to form , and then # 3 (blue ).

Finally went long when #2 ( blue) was broken

The market will always move in 1-2-3's OR V-turns ..We can anticipate the

1-2-3 's and that is where we can catch pips :D

This is about as simple as I can break it down ..

Standard MACD for direction ,,Take longs above zero line and shorts when below .

Don't be greedy , take a few at each hook ,,There will ALWAYS be another hook . :wink:

Taking some time off..Will be back in a few months ....


Trade Well..........
